AccuWeather Forecast: Unusually warm temperatures next 2 days

Takeaway of the Day
We are enjoying a bright, sunny Sunday, with temperatures at or above average for early spring. At 4 p.m., temperatures ranged from lower 70s near the bay to mid-70s inland. A few locations were even warmer--like St. Helena, which hit 80 degrees at 4 p.m.

Warm weather like this tends to attract people to the beach, but please bear in mind that a BEACH HAZARD STATEMENT is in effect until late Tuesday night. Wave heights are elevated, and there is the possibility of dangerous rip currents and sneaker waves.

The Look Ahead
We can expect two more unusually warm days coming our way tomorrow and Tuesday. Temperatures will generally be 15 to 20 degrees above average, and there is the possibility of record highs both days. Bay shore locations will see highs in the lower to mid-80s, while inland areas will warm into the mid to upper 80s. This warming trend will come to an abrupt end on Wednesday, when temperatures drop sharply. This cooling trend will continue on Thursday and Friday along with slight chances of rain.
